I've come back to Lugnet after a while away and setup to use NNTP to read the newsgroups that I like. It's worked fine for over a week and today all of a sudden I get the following error: The TCP/IP connection was unexpectedly terminated by the (...) (22 years ago, 11-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

Three new newsgroups in the lugnet.build hierarchy have been created for the focused discussion of specialty building. Micro-scale building (as in "microfig" scale) is coming into its own in a big way, thanks in a large way recently to the efforts (...)

Hi all! I've made a list of the 2002 rockets, that is, the people that increased their posting the most. I used Dan's list of how many posts each person did in 2001 & 2002 and calculated the difference. To keep this post a little shorter (and my (...)
